Review Summary for 37 East 29 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Reviews for 37 East 29 Street, Manhattan express significant concerns despite the building's affordable rent. Tenants report persistent issues with cleanliness, garbage management, and pest control, including rats and cockroaches. Noise levels are high, partly due to an Irish pub on the ground floor and the presence of an illegal massage parlor that negatively affects safety and air quality with cigarette smoke. While some praise the owner's responsiveness, others highlight corner-cutting and lack of proper maintenance. The building's environment and safety concerns lead many to advise caution, with frequent recommendations against living here despite its convenient location near transit.

Def a little shady
Former Tenant
Pros:
Management responds to your concerns quickly, but usually cuts corners.
Cons:
Do not live in the top floor of this building as there is an exhaust fan from the Irish pub downstairs that vibrates the entire floor and expels a greasy food stench. There is an illegal happy ending massage parlor on the first floor, as well as a psychic that smokes cigarettes inside constantly. She is very rude in general. Can’t really recommend this place to anyone. The Irish pub is fun though.
Advice to owner:
Idk man maybe don’t let this massage parlor continue…
